Yesterday afternoon, the Assouline<\/a> publishing house’s space in El Corte Ingl\u00e9s de Castellana was filled with light, art and glamour for the presentation of Madrid Chic, a book by Cristina Carrillo de Albornoz that explores the essence of Madrid in all its splendour. The work, which forms part of Assouline’s famous Chic series<\/a>, offers an up-close and personal vision of the city, and stands for the energy, generosity and vitality that characterise the Spanish capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At an event packed with personalities from the world of culture, art and politics, such as the Mayor of Madrid, Jos\u00e9 Luis Mart\u00ednez-Almeida, and designer Roberto Torretta, along with his wife, the public had the opportunity to learn more about the history and process behind this captivating work. Also present were other guests such as Pedro Trapote, Gabriel Su\u00e1rez and the architect Diego Gronda among many others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cristina Carrillo de Albornoz, writer and art curator, shared how the idea of creating Madrid Chic came from trying to show the world what made Madrid unique: its people, its history and, above all, that golden light that bathes the city. \u2018If life were a city, it would be Madrid, a city in which living becomes contagious<\/em><\/strong>\u2019, said the author, highlighting the human scale of the city and its capacity to welcome all those who visit it. For her, the \u2018chic\u2019 of Madrid is not that of the great capitals like Paris, but that of a city that thrives on the joy and generosity of its people, a \u2018heritage of meeting friends\u2019 that is reflected in every corner of the capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
